Reach Over Obstacles, Not Around Them

True Up-and-Over Capability

The HR12 4x4’s independently articulated booms allow operators to work up and over obstacles with confidence.

With the lower boom fully raised and the upper boom working horizontally, operators can reach over roofs, machinery, and structures without constant repositioning.

The result, faster access, fewer moves, and higher productivity on complex sites.

Lighter Machine. Lower Ground Pressure.

Access More Jobsites

With a minimum weight of just 3,480kg, the HR12 4x4 is significantly lighter than many machines in its class.

  • Reduced floor loading
  • Lower point loadings
  • Less surface damage
  • Improved suitability for sensitive ground and finished floors

For rental fleets, this opens the door to more applications with fewer restrictions.

Power That Adapts to Every Job

Diesel or Gen2 Hybrid

The HR12 4x4 is available with two EU Stage V-compliant power options, giving rental companies real flexibility.

Diesel Power

Reliable performance for demanding outdoor environments.

Gen2 Hybrid Power

Combines diesel and electric drive with an electric-only operating mode, enabling quiet, zero-emission operation indoors or in noise-sensitive areas.

One machine. Multiple environments. No compromise.

Protect Floors and Finished Surfaces

Non-Marking Tyres Available

Non-marking tyres allow the HR12 4x4 to work confidently on finished floors and delicate surfaces.

This expands indoor and mixed-use applications, helping rental fleets maximise utilisation without changing machines.

ToughCage Durability

The HR12 4x4 features Niftylift’s impact-resistant ToughCage, engineered specifically for rental environments.

  • Composite construction helps reduce damage
  • Lower repair costs compared to steel cages
  • 227kg safe working load, supporting two people plus tools

It’s a smarter way to protect both operators and long-term asset value.

This helps rental companies optimise maintenance, reduce downtime, and improve fleet profitability.
